About our bath repair in Grange
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. A repair stops both. If you’re dealing with a cracked acrylic bath and a chip where the taps sit, we can help, on acrylic, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths alike.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Common problems we fix in Grange
A cracked acrylic bath generally wasn’t supported properly. Legs that aren’t adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the base flex until it cracks.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Damage beneath the taps
- Chips caused by builders
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
What your quote should include
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What happens if they find more damage
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
The process
You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.
Why repair rather than replace?
Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. Normally it doesn’t: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Your questions about bath repair in Grange
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes, we do this frequently. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Grange. The price comes down to:
- The type of damage
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
- A picture taken from further back
Most clients in Grange get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Grange
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Grange as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
